Scarecrow is knit in the round, using Magic Loop or double pointed needles. The legs, body, arms and head are all knit on as you work along, and is approx. 10” (sitting). Scarecrow is created using #4-Worsted Wt. (Aran/10-ply) yarn: Body & “Hay” (190 yds. Red Heart Super Saver-Cornmeal), Jacket (130 yds. Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice-Terracotta), Pants (120 yds. Big Twist-Navy Blue Denim), Hat (70 yds. Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice-Toffee), Shoes (50 yds. Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice-Toffee). This darling scarecrow sits freely and would be a wonderful decoration for fall! NOTE: #3-Light Wt. (DK wt.) yarn may be substituted, using Size 3 (3.25mm) Needles for Body & Shoes, and Size 5 (3.75mm) Needles for Clothes & Hat. However, this will produce a smaller finished item.
